These Days

There's something in every one of us
That makes us born to strive
We all want to be in the limelight
That makes us, born to write
There's something I never said
Could take me away from you
Don't let it get to your head
That I'm not quite as wonderful as you

These days go on as you once said
The music keeps its promises
Things aren't always as they seem
The words are sometimes fallacies
And you never said you'd help me
So why'd I expect so much from you
Dreams aren't always quite so open
I always thought you'd see the truth
These days

There's something 'bout the way you close your eyes
When you sing something meaningful
You never let the audience distract you
It's your dream that keeps you alive
But nothing can take those dreams away except those drugs you use
With stardom comes the fear
That I'm not quite as wonderful as you

These days go on as you once said
The music keeps its promises
Things aren't always as they seem
The words are sometimes fallacies
And you never said you'd help me
So why'd I expect so much from you
Dreams aren't always quite so open
I always thought you'd see the truth
These days

There's something in every one of us
That makes us born to strive
We all want to be in the limelight
That makes us born to write
With stardom comes the fear
That I'm not quite as wonderful as you
